   * Your github fork is now synchronised with DF8OE UHSDR main repo
+=== Creating branches for tests and experiments ===
+Before creating any new branch please pull the changes from upstream as explained above. Make sure your forked repo is up to date.
+  * Create the branch on your local machine and switch in this branch :<code>$ git checkout -b [name_of_your_new_branch]</code>
+  * Change working branch : <code>$ git checkout [name_of_your_new_branch]</code>
+  * Push the branch from local repo onto remote github : <code>$ git push origin [name_of_your_new_branch]</code>
+  * When you want to commit something in your branch, be sure to be in your branch. Add -u parameter to set upstream. To check current branch use <code>$ git branch</code>
+  * Add a new remote for your branch : <code>$ git remote add [name_of_your_remote]</code>
+  * Push changes from your commit into your branch : <code>$ git push [name_of_your_new_remote] [name_of_your_branch]</code>
+  * Update your branch when the original branch from official repository has been updated : <code>$ git fetch [name_of_your_remote]</code>
+  * Then you need to apply to merge changes, if your branch is derivated from develop you need to do : <code>$ git merge [name_of_your_remote]/develop</code>
+  * Delete a branch on your local filesystem : <code>$ git branch -d [name_of_your_new_branch]</code>
+  * To force the deletion of local branch on your filesystem : <code>$ git branch -D [name_of_your_new_branch]</code>
+  * Delete the branch on github : <code>$ git push origin :[name_of_your_new_branch]</code>
